French term
tuilage
French to English
Medical
Medical: Pharmaceuticals
This term occurs in a SOP on the propagation of virus in cell cultures. The sentence in which it appears is:
Le tuilage des lots nécessite de réaliser un vide de chaîne partiel ainsi qu’un nettoyage de niveau I au désinfectant stérile entre les opérations avec du virus et les opérations de culture cellulaire
None of the definitions of tuilage I have found (tiling, curling, deformation, a singing technique!) bear any relevance to this particular context!

overlapping
Overlapping was previously proposed as a translation for "tuilage" in a different context on ProZ, but I think it could apply here also...
My (biologist's) interpretation of your posted sentence is that when working on two different lots of Product X on the same day / work shift, then appropriate measures (cleaning, etc.) must be taken to ensure that there is no cross-contamination between lots.

Note from asker:
| Yes, thank you. I'm selecting your answer because it expresses the concept that I decided was what the term meant. I phrased the translation in a different way, so did not need a verb-noun such as "overlapping", but you have been spot on in summarising the situation. |

You parallel test different lots to ensure that they perform similarly.

| Ahh, it could be! Stacking as in making a number of consecutive production runs, with cleaning required in between them.... ? |
